Avi - 6/19/2019

Avilene ate half of French toast and ate strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate several bites of Shepherd's Pie with green beans, carrots, and potatoes.  She also ate whole wheat tortillas, and ate cherries.  At lunch Avi told Atley; "It's shepherd's pie Atley!"  That surprised me and I asked, "How'd you remember that name Avi?"  Avi said, "I remember it from a few years ago."

First picture: This is from yesterday afternoon and the kids were hanging out with Coral who was admiring Callahan when I took this picture.  That's "our" girl Coral who was visiting from California.  She was in our Program before she was Callahan's age (and she's now 17) and she still has her own bedroom downstairs!  So that gives you all a clue how a piece of our heart belongs to Coral!!

Next picture: Avi was drawing this picture with sidewalk chalk and wanted to explain to me what she was doing.  She said, "I made a guy with one finger."  (meaning - one finger pointing outward)  She added, "The other fingers are pointing down."  Then she pointed with one finger to give me an illustration of what she was doing!!  Avi did LOTS of activities this morning and stayed very busy!  Last picture:  Nora asked Avi if she could join her in doing some stamps!  Avi had to give a little lecture with instructions as they began.  The only part I heard was; "Now Nora, we cannot leave the lid open because it will dry out!  And then we won't be able to use it!!"  Nice job of articulating our rules Avi.
